  1. Gould gear and electronics....fixinrams.com sells a seal kit and various ways to repair or purchase coupler and vacuum pumps for about the best prices I've seen.

  2. So same as above, on the way to work....ding-check gauge msg - no oil pressure. Checked it with a mechanical and suspect bad sensor. Been reading and appears old style used a transducer, then they went to a switch which was only on or off but gave a gauge reading to make you feel warm and fuzzy....I think it depends which switch you have installed.

Since doing the mod I can control my dead pedal....Its all coming together now with the stuck Piston Matt
